Abstract

Classifies control problems by exhibiting their alternating quantifier structure. This classification allows the authors to relate these control problems to the computational complexity classes of the polynomial time hierarchy. A specific synthesis problem for uncertain systems is shown to be hard in the class II^p_2.
